I hope that Mosquitor comes with both his gun and a Horde Crossbow, I really feel that is their signiture weapon, and represents a status symbol amgonst the generals in the horde. And I know no one else has a purple crossbow. So....Come on mattel, or at least include one in a weapons pak.

PD, thanks to you and your review, Mosquitor is now the most wanted figure in my household. I have said numerous times my son loves your reviews and he saw your review for the vintage or as he says, "old skool."

I must admit I want him also in Classics ASAP. That blood pumping feature and his uber cybernetic coolness is pretty sweet. I can't wait to see what the 4H do with him.

Why No Love for Mosquitor?

So why is there no love for this guy? He's always been my favorite guy. My most fond memories is with this guy battling Buzz Off and dominating my little battlefield as a kid. I mean, Mosquitor doesn't even have an encyclopedia entry on this site. why is that? Or if you love Mosquitor, please speak up. Why do you like or dislike Mosquitor? Oh, and show some Mosquitor love by showing us yours. Here's mine. I had to get another as my old one was beat all to hell.

The next two male Horde members, in importance to me, are Mantenna and then Modulok. Mosquitor is next after that, but above Dragstor and Multibot--but then that's all based on the order in which I got them and I never owned those last two. I have no doubt that Dan's professed love of Mosquitor has bumped him up in popularity a little, but he was one of the few figures to make it into the 200x staction line and that helped too.

All references to blood would be gone. Instead the characters would probably have glowed as he drained their "energy" from them. I'd further guess that given the Freudianism of that nose being used to overpower female heroes, his draining powers would have been moved to his hands instead.

I remember being instantly attracted to the Mosquitor figure when he was originally released. I loved his colors, and the blood feature was so cool at the time. I love the Horde, and he is easily one of my favorites.
